In with both

Posted by: 19th Century Indiana Jones Apr 8 2012, 05:23 PM

Dropping Texans. I will wait to see if my team opens up.

Posted by: Takeobeavis Apr 8 2012, 09:11 PM

I am in. And even though it could benefit me the most I do not think we should do 2011 NT. We continue to do all these high end boxs and keep getting burned. Based on the 2 cases you just did it doesn't look good. The amount of 1 color jeresy cards was insane. I would rather do five or six boxes of 2011 rookies and stars. We would get more hit and better chances for everyone to get something.

Posted by: NYStateOfMind1976 Apr 8 2012, 10:28 PM

I am back

Posted by: Redleader Apr 9 2012, 04:40 AM

In!!! Woodson time!!!

Posted by: MWS Apr 9 2012, 09:19 AM

In and stuff.

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 9 2012, 10:03 AM

I hear you as it's always a crap shoot of what you'll get whether it's a high end box or low end box but we've always had one high end box included and that's usually where I get the most positive feedback as most folks like having a taste of the high end stuff in a (relatively) low priced break. That's my .02 but as always I am open to what the group thinks so let me know opinions.

Posted by: Gadsden86 Apr 9 2012, 03:14 PM

i'm in need some dolphins mojo this month.

Posted by: Cardman123 Apr 9 2012, 05:01 PM

I am in with the Rams. If Boomer is ready to take the Ravens back, he may have them, otherwise, I will hold onto them. If I hold them this month, I can't guarantee they will be available after the draft.

Thanks,
Joe

RAIDERS AVAILABLE!

TITANs CONFIRMED!

Payment sent! (early for a change) :/

Posted by: kpit1978 Apr 12 2012, 09:43 AM

Picking up the Raiders.

Posted by: BOBKONING Apr 12 2012, 07:45 PM

My vote is to keep the high end box. I'd rather someone get (or have a shot at) a good quality high end card than 10 people getting single jersey cards that go into storage collecting dust. My 3 cents...

Posted by: kpit1978 Apr 12 2012, 11:20 PM

Ditto. I think Chris does a great job with the line-up.

Posted by: Cardman123 Apr 13 2012, 01:27 PM

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 24 2012, 04:36 PM

I assumed (since I already received payment!)

Posted by: deantap Apr 24 2012, 06:10 PM

Sorry as I forgot about this one, payment in the mail tomorrow!

Posted by: Takeobeavis Apr 26 2012, 01:58 PM

Why do we do not auction off the other teams?

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 26 2012, 04:10 PM

With this group I have always held tight at the $50 flat fee to join as a way of generating the most revenue for the group which of course allows us to buy more wax. We rarely have more than 2 teams go unclaimed but I can't tell you how many times I have had folks ask if they can join for $30 or so. By not discounting teams we don't have anybody holding out until after a team goes unclaimed just so they can get them cheaper. Not saying any of you in the group right now would do that but alot of newer folks ask about that possibility. I'm convinced we generate more revenue this way than taking the chance of allowing more teams to go unclaimed just to be sold at a lesser price. Hope that makes sense?

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 26 2012, 08:28 PM

I'm going to go ahead and pick up the Cardinals and go for some Michael Floyd love down the road.

Posted by: deantap Apr 26 2012, 10:24 PM

In the Mail!

Posted by: Gadsden86 Apr 27 2012, 05:41 PM

Posted by: bajmurray Apr 27 2012, 05:48 PM

Captain.....There be Ho-Hos here!!!

Posted by: Cool_Hand_Flash Apr 27 2012, 05:51 PM

Draft, saw The Avengers today and its break night?? awesome day!

Posted by: Gadsden86 Apr 27 2012, 06:05 PM

How was it? Was thier much hawkeye in it? ( the guy with the bow)

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 27 2012, 06:06 PM

You've got a good rookie to collect there Justin!

Posted by: MWS Apr 27 2012, 06:10 PM

I have missed all of the draft. Getting ready move next month.

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 27 2012, 06:11 PM

Now you have Fleener as well!

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 27 2012, 06:11 PM

Where to??

Posted by: Gadsden86 Apr 27 2012, 06:15 PM

I know cant wait till 2012 stuff now. For once a QB to collect who doesnt have to play right away.

Posted by: Cool_Hand_Flash Apr 27 2012, 06:15 PM

Well, my only two negative points were not enough Hawkeye (and his outfit is waaaaay off), and I dont feel Scarlet Johanson can play the Widow role, other than that I loved it. Funny, and great action.. Ive been waiting for an Avengers movie since I started reading comics, so I may be biased

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 27 2012, 06:20 PM

Careful as that's what I thought with Tim Couch and Colt McCoy and both ended up having to play far too soon than they should have!

Posted by: MWS Apr 27 2012, 06:22 PM

Back home to Colorado.

Posted by: ajsquiggy Apr 27 2012, 06:43 PM

Good luck everybody!!

I am taking my son to baseball practice. Not sure if I wil be home before its over.

Where in Colorado Mike? I live in Castle Rock

Posted by: MWS Apr 27 2012, 06:44 PM

The Springs. Can't wait to get back there.

Posted by: Gadsden86 Apr 27 2012, 06:53 PM

Hey dont bust my bubble yet Chris.

You guys what i think is a killer pick in Weeden i wish the phins could have gotten him but i;ll take Tannehill as well both should be good.

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 27 2012, 06:59 PM

I hope he's good but I wish Colt would have had a chance to play with better tools around him.

Posted by: ajsquiggy Apr 27 2012, 07:12 PM

Welcome back. The Springs is nice. About 30 miles south of me.

The family and I love it here.

Posted by: MWS Apr 27 2012, 07:18 PM

Yeah I grew up there and I love it.

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 27 2012, 07:35 PM

Hey guys...sorry, got caught up in the draft so I'm a few minutes late (big surprise). First box up in just a minute.

Posted by: MWS Apr 27 2012, 07:36 PM

Applying BajMurray payment of $32.50 towards next months payment.

Posted by: Gadsden86 Apr 28 2012, 01:31 PM

Do you think we will have any 2012 stuff next month? Like upper deck?

Posted by: crpalmi Apr 29 2012, 08:16 AM

I'd like to include it as soon as possible but need to wait for the cards to have NFL teams on them which usually starts with Prestige I believe? If that's the case it will have to wait until June.
